Very special Bugatti Veyron auctioned in America

January 19, 2023

Tad longer

We’ll give it away right away: no one cut up a real Veyron to make it into a limo. Fortunately. The remarkable creation – which once had a small role in a Pitbull video clip – was built by USA Replica Car several years ago. The name of the company already gives away that this is a fake Feyron. But not a one-to-one replica. As you can see, it is a tad longer than usual.

Wings

Besides its length, there are a (considerable) number of other things that do not match a regular Veyron. Do you see what we mean? Exactly, the doors. Wing doors belong on a Lamborghini Aventador, not a Bugatti. The huge wing door at the back of the limo probably does not make getting in and out of the back easy. The opening is large, but you have to bend over considerably if you don’t want to headbutt the car.

Nightclub

The particular limousine sits on a Lincoln platform and has a fat Ford 4.6-liter V8 under the hood. Only 400 kilometers remain on the counter. The interior has all the luxuries you would expect in a stretch limo. Think “nightclub lighting,” a TV and a giant long couch. The interior is American dressed up, so nice and vulgar. So red velvet decorative pillows and interior lighting are not to be missed.

Sold

Can you see yourself driving this mastodon? Then you’re out of luck. The car just went under the hammer at Mecum Auction’s in Kissimmee, Florida. A buyer – we’re guessing an organizer of the better parties and celebrations – plunked down $75,000 for the Bugatti limo.
